Long shadows

[D3R]

Hi all,

I would like to be able to make long shadows. Examples attached. 

I am suggesting an option in the dialogue box of the outer shadow. 

I'm not a programer. 

But my understanding of the current programming of the outer shadow simplified to the letter is.

Please, dear affinity copy pixels of the selected layer. Move copied pixels underneath the current layer and move int 58pixels  under the 315degree angle. 

what programming of my proposed 3d shadow something would look like:

 Please, dear affinity copy pixels of the selected layer. Move copied pixels underneath the current layer and move int 58pixels  under the 315degree angle. And then make a number of copies (distance - 1) and distribute them under the same angle but in the varying distance of ( original value = 58 pixels minus n) ( n is a number from 1 to original offset value. 

this would make this workflow: 

automatic.

please, can any developer comment on this? I would really appreciate it. 

regards,

D.
